Luther, season 4 is now available on DVD

I praised this show in a post a bit over two years ago.  At that time, season 3 was complete, and it looked like there might never be a season 4.  Fortunately for me and other fans of the show, star Idris Elba, writer Neil Cross, and the rest of the Luther gang decided they, too, wanted to know what happened next, so they created a fourth season.

A rather brief, two-episode fourth season, but a fourth season nonetheless.

A small group of us watched it tonight and very much enjoyed it.  Idris Elba was, as always, magnificent as detective John Luther, and all of the supporting cast members turned in strong performances.

I don't want to give away any spoilers, so if you are up to date on this show, go watch this new season.  If you don't know Luther, treat yourself and catch every episode from the first season onward.  You'll be glad you did.
